What is brave about sitting in an armchair miles from the action, my first thought is might as well give one to the home based Blanket stackers as well, after all everyone contributes..
Combat or staying with an aircraft etc to steer it clear of an area or bringing it back to base damaged I can understand, you're putting yourself at risk in doing it, sitting at a desk the only concern is knocking your coffee over.
It sort if makes the gallantry awards a laughing stock if it ranks higher than those for actual in theater combat.
